Horses just seem so much happier when they are in their mountain pasture. They don’t get to spend a lot of time out here, about 2 hours early morning and late evening, but they sure look content.We rode up to long creek on big river trail yesterday. Connie had never been up to spruce park or beyond and its sure a nice easy trip. Great for a early season ride. Banjo (the bay) is the most inexperienced horse we have, so he gets training time on easy trails. I took him over to Glacier Park to ride the Old Flathead ranger station trail. There he experienced meeting up with strange horses, and new people. It’s good for him to meet hikers with bright colored backpacks on, and other trail hazards in a somewhat non-treacherous area. This is a pretty trail ride that follows along the flathead river on the Glacier Park side.
